"Can't think of a better way to release our new single,"

The Raskins will be coming to The Foundry at SLS Friday July 8!

says Logan about the upcoming dates with the Nuge. "It's so wild to think that the Raskins get a chance to tour with such a rock icon as Ted Nugent," adds Roger. "Two of our favorite rock songs of all time are of course 'Cat Scratch Fever' and 'Stranglehold'.”

The band will also be adding a few new songs from the upcoming album into the setlist for this incredible tour with Ted Nugent. Joining Logan and Roger (who handle vocals and guitar/vocals respectively), will be Jet Lopez (guitars), Michael Reynoso (bass/vocals), and Troy Patrick Farrell ("the animal drummer").

After the Raskins finished up a 70 show run with Motley Crue on their final tour, the band came home and went straight into writing mode for the album. The brothers ended up writing and recording about 40 songs - 12 of which ended up making the cut for the new record.

Sylvia credits her love of rock journalism and working in and around it to the person she calls the “First Lady of Rock n Roll Journalists” The legendary Jaan Uhelszki who co-founded influential music publication CREEM Magazine, but also gives a nod to the women who were also involved in the early days like Lisa Robinson and photographer Lynn Goldsmith.
Sylvia's eye for talent and ear for great music have never failed her.
Ever sarcastic with a love for heavy metal and fine wine- she is the fearless leader of this bunch of talented lunatics.
